Outreach and education help ensure fair access to our services and support confidence in the justice system. Why outreach matters Some communities are disproportionately represented in the criminal justice system. It is important that people understand their rights and know when they can apply to us. Our outreach work supports equitable access to justice. Priority groups We prioritise engagement with groups that are over-represented in the criminal justice system, including: Māori Pacific peoples Women Young people We work in ways that are culturally responsive and accessible. How we engage Our outreach and education activities may include: Community presentations and hui Engagement with advocacy organisations Information sessions for legal professionals Written resources and guidance We aim to provide clear and accessible information about when and how people can apply.
